Changelog

  • Version 1.0 β€” Initial version that forces AMBOSS tooltips to trigger on click instead of hover by modifying tippyOptions and root tooltip props.
  • Version 1.1 β€” Added broader patching: updates existing tooltip instances, delegate options, retries initialization, and scans DOM elements for active tooltips.
  • Version 1.2 β€” Major robustness upgrade with full manager patching, click-gate logic, outside-click closing, animation-aware hiding, controller interception, and multi-fallback compatibility handling.
  • Version 1.3 β€” Fixed one-by-one cloze compatibility by handling marker clicks directly in the capture phase, so cloze click handlers that stop propagation no longer block AMBOSS tooltip display.
  • Version 2.0 β€” Cross-platform compatibility release: fixed one-by-one cloze behavior on Windows (template-injected AMBOSS runtime) by patching one-by-one click propagation for AMBOSS markers while preserving click-to-open behavior across normal and one-by-one cards.
